I respect anyone's decision to remain uncircumcised. I understand the stigma in Europe and how personal a decision it is for men. Before I found
PhalloBoards, I was an advocate for men keeping their
Foreskin. And I felt, and still feel, parents should let the man decide for himself if he wants to get cut or not. Making that decision for him at birth is ridiculous in my opinion. The surgery isn't as big a deal for an adult as people make it seem. I think you can start lifting after a week and a half, maybe not full bore. But after two weeks you'd be fine to lift again. You aren't using this tip of your penis to lift. The issue is increased blood flow throughout the body and how that could potentially effect healing down there. If you had neck surgery, or stomach surgery, than I'd be way more cautious because we use those muscles when lifting. It's a procedure that will stick with you the rest of your life so I wouldn't let taking a couple weeks (your doctor may say you need less time) off lifting get in the way of your decision. I was back on the stair climber after a few days.
For me though, it wasn't a tough decision to get cut before going through with the procedure and I always recommend guys get cut before going on the journey. I understood that it'd be better overall for my penis to accommodate the filler if I got
Circumcised. I'm investing too much money into getting filler that I didn't want any higher risks associated with being uncut. You're getting
PMMA, you can't reverse it. I honestly can't imagine what it'd be like if I went through with the procedure uncut. I went from 5 inches to 7 inches of
Girth after 5 sessions.
The nerves in the glans run deep. Thy aren't all on the surface. Yes, when I was uncircumcised I'd flinch if my glans were exposed and they touched my underwear or if the shower pressure hit them. That sensitivity has dulled. It used to be just touching the glans was sensitive. But I think this sensitivity is different than what we experience with sex or masturbation. And I got my
Frenulum completely cut off. I didn't find any less pleasure from sex or masturbation's. There are times when I think it's more pleasurable. I can feel all the pleasure sensors right under where the
Frenulum used to be.
Lastly, for me I felt like the
Foreskin got in the way of sex. Even though I enjoyed masturbating with the
Foreskin, receiving head is better cut and I do think most, not all, but most women in the west prefer it. It is what it is. There's more friction during sex. Moving in and out during intercourse, I didn't like how the
Foreskin would sort of stay in place when pulling out. My penis would glide back into the skin instead of gliding back down her vagina. So, I was actually already thinking of getting cut before I found out about these procedures but I was so insecure about my size I felt like it wouldn't matter. I'd still lack confidence.
